Quote:That reminds me of my 8th grade algebra teacher. All the credibility in the world (he has a Doctorate from the Uni. of Berkeley, he bragged about it all the fuckin' time), but no teaching skills. Graduated with a D+ average, and I curse him for that.Well, this guy can teach, but he didn't know how to grade what he taught. I think that's just as bad.
Quote:I've only had private tutors since 3rd grade.That's just fucked up.
and shes a crazed old tight bitch!
for crying out loud- back when I didnt understand fractions, all she did was lecture and lecture without telling me the basics, so I couldnt make heads or tails of what she was saying. if I interupted her, she'd yell at me.
then she gives me a pice of paper with lots of fractional problems- like I said, I didnt know anything about fractions, so you could guess what my score was.
yey, she's mad.
she yells at me and shakes me. hard.
want to hear what she usually says?
You are a stupid, foolish WORTHLESS individual, you dont deserve an educator of my caliber!! you're lazy, and you're a disgrace to your family!-
and it goes on, and on... this could really traumatize an eight-year-old, dont you think?
